INGREDIENTS
1 lb short-grain rice 8 umeboshi (dried plum) 8 nori (dried seaweed) salt
DIRECTIONS
Cook the rice. Keep it warm, but let it cool enough so that it won't burn your hands. Cut each nori sheet into 9 strips. Wet your hands and sprinkle them with salt to prevent the rice from sticking to them. Mold a handful of rice into a triangular shape with an indentation in the middle. Press a piece of umeboshi into the indentation you left. Wrap the rice and umeboshi in Nori strips. Serve immediately or save for later.
